[Abdominal injuries in polytraumatised patients].

Authors have observed in 1978-1984 in 87 of 214 polytrauma cases injuries of the abdominal organs. The data concerning children in whom the high ratio of injuries of the abdominal organs and the low mortality are conspicuous are shown separately. The necessity of urgent diagnosis to which especially the abdominal irrigation has given great help is stressed. After a review of the literature and a control of their own material the problem is considered as actual, as in polytraumas the abdominal injuries are frequent, the valuation of the abdomen in the patient, generally in shock or unconscious is problematic, the many times simultaneous therapy of the abdominal and joined injuries is difficult, the mortality high.
